- Add encrypted DataCaster support for Model fields and Entity properties. - Store encrypted values as Base64-encoded ciphertext using the Encryption service. - Document storage, validation, query, serialization, and key rotation caveats. - Add focused tests for encryption, decryption, nullable values, previous keys, and invalid payloads.

Description
This PR adds an
encryptedcast type for Model Field Casting and Entity Property Casting.It uses the existing Encryption service to encrypt string values before storage and decrypt them when they are read back:
The encrypted value is stored as Base64-encoded ciphertext, so it can be safely saved in string/text database columns even when the encryption handler returns binary data.
The implementation is intentionally limited to string values, with nullable values supported through
?encrypted. The docs cover the important caveats around column size, querying encrypted values, passwords, serialization, and key rotation.Tests cover the cast itself, nullable values, invalid payloads, failed decryption, previous keys, DataConverter usage, and Entity raw/plain value behavior.
